The Ephedra Ban: The Truth
"Nearly 60,000 people probably died from that drug. That's as many
of our soldiers that were killed in the Vietnam war [who] died as a result of
Vioxx use. And FDA had the opportunity, the responsibility, to stop that
and didn't… The pharma-FDA complex has to be dismantled and the
American people have to insist on that, otherwise we're going to have
disasters like Vioxx that happen in the future.”

Where are these stats coming from and what's up with their use of 'probably'

FDA, I'm sorry if this offends anyone, are some of the stinkiest scum out there and I am quick to disbelieve many things they say considering they approve these murderous drugs like Vioxx a year after it comes out and then deny the horrible side effects that come from these drugs
